Enel

Enel has asked the Brazilian regulator Aneel to stop the process that could lead to the revocation of the distribution concession for São Paulo. The company argues that Aneel has insufficiently analyzed the impact on consumers and notes that it has met the official quality metrics; Enel describes the December 2025 event as unprecedented. Aneel had previously identified structural shortcomings and inadequate performance during extreme weather events in 2023–2025 and has now confirmed receipt of Enel’s final statement before making a recommendation to the federal government. Enel also demands an independent technical review, which Aneel had already rejected in August. » Mere på de.investing.com
